That's pretty cool, although Halifax seems to be down right now. Some of
the other areas are working though.

Is anything online? I had no luck at all.

Toronto was working a short while ago. You can listen to them shoot each
other up, it's great.

It shouldn't be done, but maybe it's slow with no traffic because of
cold weather, LOL.
Rob
Still says off-line, but I'll try again tomorrow. BTW, thanks for the link.

Most police agencies have gone digital. I'm surprised there's any
analog radios still being used.

Because people have scanners, and when the cops are looking for a
bad guy in a red Camery last seen going out toward the Herring Cove
road, they just have to radio this in and 28 people will call in the
next 10 minutes telling them it just went by their house.
That was how it was explained to me. Sensitive information is
transferred via encrypted digital signals as you indicated, but there is
some information the police want out there so amateur detectives will
help them find the bad guys.
Ice!

I still have my PRO-2005 and PRO-2020 scanners. Most use they have had
recently was with the baby monitor. The kids no longer need them so the
2020 is collecting dust. I brought the 2005 to work and listen to FM
radio with it.

I used to own the 2020. That was a nice scanner in it's day.

Has it ever worked? I've checked a few times and it's always offline.
Jack
Actually most depts now used CAD..everything shows up on their in-car
laptops. Radios are used sparingly now.

Also a call to 911 reporting a gun battle in the North end
should give one lots of time to break into a house in the
south end.
At one time after 11 or 12 there was only one Mountie car
assigned to the area from Head of St Margaret's Bay, Peggy's
Cove, Prospect, Herring Cove and around the loop to
Harrietsfield.
Many a crime was committed at that time using the abouve decoy.

Far from obsolete my friend. While the bigger police departments have gone
digital and trunked radio, there is plenty of uhf/vhf analog traffic still
out there. For example if you were to connect that scanner to a computer
sound card and then install WACARS/ACARS decoding software on that
computer and program your scanner to a few ACARS frequencies you could
then track most of the aircraft flying over your area, plot it on a mapa
and read airline messages from home office to the pilots of those planes.
If you look up the pager freqs instal POSAG software you could decode
pager messages. Analog if far from obsolete !!!

Thats just a halfassed tracker for flights to and from Halifax Airport.
You would be amazed at how many aircraft pass over the area in the run of
a day on their way to and from Europe. Thats what ACARS can track and ir's
what they use to generate those tracks from Halifax airport witha filter
to screen out the other flights not destined for Halifax. You can even see
and track some private and corporate jetsas well.
